The stock is made for a scope.

If it doesn't then it's probably because:

1. The scope can be mounted lower and closer to the bore line if there aren't any sights or rear sight ramp in the way.

2. Since it's primarily designed for the mountains, the designers must figure that it will be used for shooting across passes, canyons or low lying areas in-between steep hillsides that could cover considerable distance, and shooting at more extreme angles that would be best served by mounting a scope.
Many bull barrel and varmint rifles don't have sights. They're also intended for accurate shooting at long range and mounting a scope to accomplish that is the norm.

I don't want to keep showing videos to prove a point, but it seems I have to.

Keep in mind the MR has an Apex stock when you watch this.

I saw O'neil Outdoor televison show this morning featuring hunts with the mountain rifle. They mentioned how light it was was but came with a great recoil pad to offset this. They mentioned it came with a sling and was really great to shoot with a scope. Seemed like a nice gun, they were wearing out some havelinas with it.

Go to this thread and you will see how good she shoots.

Wrong again. I can't stand Waddell either.

Never said you did.

So, not wrong.

Lol who were you talking to?

I never said who we liked. I just said who we didn't like.

If you have others that you don't like. Fine, but I didn't mention it.

You don't appear to like anybody who's sponsored.

wooohooo!!! 5 days later i can finally log in without an error popping up.

To clarify, I did not buy the MR from Carlos, I always get mine through CVA as a writer/reviewer/tinkerer. A couple deals popped up where my gun was ordered and something got screwed up and before it could be caught, they were out of MR's. These things are selling like hot cakes and CVA actually has to have them brought in VIA air shipments.

Just was saying that Carlos so far has the best prices on them that I can find.

Mine should be here at the end of the week.

As for open sights, They show you can order it with scope mount or open sights. On our Apex, its a scope only rifle BUT I was able to shim both the rear and front sights up enough for my dad to use this hunting season. I did find a few days ago that the shim allowed the front sight to have some slight wiggle, So I just used some epoxy and fed it under the sight and made a nice bed for the sight to rest on. Solid as a rock now.

Using a TALL front sight and rear sight, the MR would have no issues at all with open sights.
